The car has been renovated and preserved, with rust-free history in South Africa. It has had a cosmetic repaint, re-plated chrome trim, and a cleaned interior. Engine rebuild, clutch replacement, and other mechanical improvements have been carried out, but there is also attention paid to retaining patina and originality. The car is said to start readily, with no smoke, and cruises at 60mph.
